TV, schools have input on super regional start dates

FAYETTEVILLE — Super regional dates and start times will be unveiled Tuesday by the NCAA.

The announcement will be made at 7 a.m. on the NCAA's website and social media accounts, said J.D. Hamilton, an assistant director with the NCAA.

The super regionals are best-of-three-game series played at eight host sites. Four super regionals will begin Friday and four more will begin Saturday.

Arkansas will host Ole Miss in the Fayetteville Super Regional.

Hamilton said the NCAA considers several factors when deciding when super regionals will begin. Among the considerations are input from ESPN about which matchups are most desirable for TV, and input from schools about what is happening on host campuses that might affect hotel availabilities in their cities.
